- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsChristian BaleHeath LedgerAaron EckhartWhen the menace known as the Joker wreaks havoc and chaos on the people of Gotham, Batman must accept one of the greatest psychological and physical tests of his ability to fight injustice.Good film. But mostly popular due to the fact Heath Ledger was in it without Heath the film would have been just another batman movie. I enjoyed this film very much but no a film to see before you die it isn't as good as all the hype it has gotten nor should it have been nominated for an oscar. Heath Ledger did an amazing job though without him this film wouldn't have been this successful
- DirectorTodd PhillipsStarsZach GalifianakisBradley CooperJustin BarthaThree buddies wake up from a bachelor party in Las Vegas, with no memory of the previous night and the bachelor missing. They make their way around the city in order to find their friend before his wedding.People act like they never seen a comedy film ever. However this is one of my favorite films and funniest films i seen but people fell in love with this too quick. Dont get me wrong excellent film but with all the good ratings and hype the film isn't the funniest movie ever and seriously good film but no 100% all good
- DirectorBrian De PalmaStarsAl PacinoMichelle PfeifferSteven BauerIn 1980 Miami, a determined Cuban immigrant takes over a drug cartel and succumbs to greed.Very popular movie and it has been watched for years and years and every generation knows of this film my point to it, is that this film is stupid its only popular cause his quotes and his accent this film is extremely overrated how can this be one of the best gangster movies ever it was hard to watch this film and it is extremely boring not a film to watch for fun i must say though
- DirectorMartin ScorseseStarsLeonardo DiCaprioEmily MortimerMark RuffaloTeddy Daniels and Chuck Aule, two US marshals, are sent to an asylum on a remote island in order to investigate the disappearance of a patient, where Teddy uncovers a shocking truth about the place.What the *beep* this film wasn't entertaining at all now the story of this film is very confusing you barley know what happens in it, i was confused during the whole movie. Not entertaining like i said but a waste of time it lacks so much and most films starring Leo are always rating high this one should have been rating at least a 6.8 nothing higher and to say this is one of the films people have to see before they die this shouldn't even be mentioned
- DirectorDavid FincherStarsBrad PittEdward NortonMeat LoafAn insomniac office worker and a devil-may-care soap maker form an underground fight club that evolves into much more.Not as good as people rate it. I saw it enjoyed it but thought the rating was a bit much for this film
- DirectorDavid FincherStarsJesse EisenbergAndrew GarfieldJustin TimberlakeAs Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg creates the social networking site that would become known as Facebook, he is sued by the twins who claimed he stole their idea and by the co-founder who was later squeezed out of the business.Excellent story but how many times are they gonna make films like this all it is, is an rags to riches story and we all make a big deal over the film only because it is about 'facebook' i must admit facebook is awesome and this film is awesome but only watchable one time and Jesse Eissenberg's character is very annoying i dont even know how most could have made it through the first 5 minutes but excellent story but it was barley watchable and the rating should be a little lower
- DirectorFrank DarabontStarsTim RobbinsMorgan FreemanBob GuntonOver the course of several years, two convicts form a friendship, seeking consolation and, eventually, redemption through basic compassion.This is number one in the top 250 movies of all time a really excellent and powerful movie but it shouldn't be number one it needs to be lower
- DirectorFrancis Ford CoppolaStarsMarlon BrandoAl PacinoJames CaanThe aging patriarch of an organized crime dynasty transfers control of his clandestine empire to his reluctant son.Do i need to say more the film is annoying and i dont understand how people obsess with these old gangster movies like Scarface, Godfather. This was overrated because the film isn't all that well delivered it is boring not a film to see before you die.
- DirectorJames CameronStarsSam WorthingtonZoe SaldanaSigourney WeaverA paraplegic Marine dispatched to the moon Pandora on a unique mission becomes torn between following his orders and protecting the world he feels is his home.The Animation and the live-action was amazing but not as good as everyone talked about a good story but lacks and it is nothing speacial since there are many live-action films that delivered more than this. The whole film was a human basically falling in love with a creature
- DirectorCatherine HardwickeStarsKristen StewartRobert PattinsonBilly BurkeWhen Bella Swan moves to a small town in the Pacific Northwest, she falls in love with Edward Cullen, a mysterious classmate who reveals himself to be a 108-year-old vampire.This goes to all the other Twilight films and the twilight fans this film is extremely overrated it only makes money because 9-14 yr old girls seem to fall for the main actors. The films lack so much and the films are good for box office i must say but the critics reviews for this in magazines, etc are crazy there is no action in these films and each of the films have the same storyline she has to choose between the two guys Jacob or Edward the only one worth watching is the first part but these films are looked at a bit too good when the films are dry
- DirectorFrank MillerQuentin TarantinoRobert RodriguezStarsMickey RourkeClive OwenBruce WillisAn exploration of the dark and miserable Basin City and three of its residents, all of whom are caught up in violent corruption.If i wanted to see a film that was narrated 90% of the movie i'll might of well read the damn comics. Don't get me wrong something in this film are awesome but it is very annoying i think it gets looked at higer due to the giant celebrity cast and it shouldn't be in the top 250 nor in any countdown for movies i love the celebrities in this movie but nothing to look forward to in it
- DirectorJohn Lee HancockStarsQuinton AaronSandra BullockTim McGrawThe story of Michael Oher, a homeless and traumatized boy who became an All-American football player and first-round NFL draft pick with the help of a caring woman and her family.Good film one of the best i seen in the year 2009 but the hype it got was what made it a let down in a way i don't see a oscar winning performance in here at all i've seen lots of films like this and it didn't get nominated the problem with this is that everyone looks at it has a big masterpiece a good film i must really say but to me if this film was nominated for an oscar then 'Remember The Titans' should have been nominated
- DirectorAndrew StantonStarsBen BurttElissa KnightJeff GarlinIn the distant future, a small waste-collecting robot inadvertently embarks on a space journey that will ultimately decide the fate of mankind.Not even fun for kids or adults. WALL E was cute but for most of the movie no one talked at all i mean some silent films are ok but this was ok also but no excellent it didn't move me like 'Lion King' or 'Shrek' or 'Toy Story' did for me
- DirectorPete DocterBob PetersonStarsEdward AsnerJordan NagaiJohn Ratzenberger78-year-old Carl Fredricksen travels to Paradise Falls in his house equipped with balloons, inadvertently taking a young stowaway.Another toon fim that was overrated i must say the storyline of him and his wife and how she died was one of the most touching things a toon film can do but after that the rest of the film lacks and the rating is very high of this movie, i can't see how it became popular and how kids can enjoy an old man as a main character (no offense)
- DirectorRichard KellyStarsJake GyllenhaalJena MaloneMary McDonnellAfter narrowly escaping a bizarre accident, a troubled teenager is plagued by visions of a man in a large rabbit suit who manipulates him to commit a series of crimes.Seriously, i saw this film not a life-changing, moving film it was very stupid not even creative i know films similar that should have had a better rating i feel like it is very overrated not that good as the rating says if people give it 8.2 you would see it and it would be a lower rating that comes to mind
- DirectorJonathan DemmeStarsJodie FosterAnthony HopkinsScott GlennA young F.B.I. cadet must receive the help of an incarcerated and manipulative cannibal killer to help catch another serial killer, a madman who skins his victims.I don't need a reason to explain for this movie just watch the movie and see how overrated it is
- DirectorJohn LandisStarsJohn BelushiKaren AllenTom HulceAt a 1962 college, Dean Vernon Wormer is determined to expel the entire Delta Tau Chi Fraternity, but those troublemakers have other plans for him.Funny movie but i dont like how people say this is the funniest movie of all time because it is not even close. I am not saying it is stupid or anything but it is very overrated for a comedy film i enjoyed it and had good laughs but not enough laughs to make me say it deserves to be number one
- DirectorDavid Gordon GreenStarsSeth RogenJames FrancoGary ColeA process server and his marijuana dealer wind up on the run from hitmen and a corrupt police officer after he witnesses his dealer's boss murder a competitor while trying to serve papers on him.Very overrated. If this is the one stoner flick that gets a real high rating then wow people these day don't need comedy. This film had lots of laughs for me but it wasn't all that funny like everyone would say it would be. I know lots of other stoner flicks that should have a high rating like this for example 'Friday', 'Jay and Silent Bob', 'Cheech and Chong Films', 'Harold and Kumar', 'How High', 'Half Baked' and much more this is not even one of the funniest movies ever
- DirectorMartin ScorseseStarsRobert De NiroRay LiottaJoe PesciThe story of Henry Hill and his life in the mafia, covering his relationship with his wife Karen and his mob partners Jimmy Conway and Tommy DeVito.People always rate movies high like this because it was the modern gangster style movies at the time but this was good but it doesn't need a high rating like that seriously very overrated
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsLeonardo DiCaprioJoseph Gordon-LevittElliot PageA thief who steals corporate secrets through the use of dream-sharing technology is given the inverse task of planting an idea into the mind of a C.E.O., but his tragic past may doom the project and his team to disaster.WHAT THE *beep*. IMDB IS ON LEONARDO DICARPIO'S DICK SERIOUSLY THIS IS IN THE TOP 250 #8.
- DirectorBen StillerStarsBen StillerJack BlackRobert Downey Jr.Through a series of freak occurrences, a group of actors shooting a big-budget war movie are forced to become the soldiers they are portraying.Seriously not a comedy you can watch over and over the first half was hilarious then it dragged with the asian people (not saying that to offend anyone) making him dress like Simple Jack then Robert Downey Jr. goes from white to black then asian. Extremely overrated and RDJ was nominated for an oscar which is complete *beep* if this film is nominated for that performance then nominate the Wayan Bros. for White Chick. This is another overrated comedy
- DirectorDarren AronofskyStarsNatalie PortmanMila KunisVincent CasselNina is a talented but unstable ballerina on the verge of stardom. Pushed to the breaking point by her artistic director and a seductive rival, Nina's grip on reality slips, plunging her into a waking nightmare.Not a bad movie but not even close to be called one of the greatest movies of all time, the story was absolute crap i am not saying that because it focuses a lesbianism i am going about all the hype this film has gotten. I've seen way better films with similar storylines that didn't get hype like this
- DirectorZack SnyderStarsJackie Earle HaleyPatrick WilsonCarla GuginoIn a version of 1985 where superheroes exist, the murder of a colleague sends active vigilante Rorschach on the trail of a conspiracy that will change the course of history.Absolutely boring (no offense) I could barley make it through this movie, it is more than 3 hours almost and the dialouge is terrible and the blue guy's penis showing alot is very pointless, i know this is based on a graphic novel but i dislike how people say this film is great, the film lacks so much it then becomes hard to enjoy. I read some posts by fans of this film they watch this film everytime it is on TV, not saying this film is bad it is just boring to watch and not fun at all, one of the few superhero movies i couldn't get into like that
- DirectorMatthew VaughnStarsAaron Taylor-JohnsonNicolas CageChloë Grace MoretzDave Lizewski is an unnoticed high school student and comic book fan who one day decides to become a superhero, even though he has no powers, training or meaningful reason to do so.I enjoyed some of the comedy and action in this film but people enough with calling this a comedy, it barley has laughs it is more of an action movie but i thats not the problem. The problem is people rate this film like it was a great action movie, the action seens were short and simple and not enough action to satisfy as a comic book movie. This story has been done way too many times the nerd becomes the hero and gets the girl i was hoping for a different story not a predictable since the film got alot of love and hype i say this film deserves a fair 6/10 the story is too simple to be called a good comic book movie
